68.1: Invited Paper: Quantum Dot Manufacturing Requirements for the High Volume LCD Market

Quantum dots (QDs) are a luminescent semiconductor nanomaterial technology that delivers exceptional color for liquid crystal display backlighting unit (LCD-BLU) applications. We report on the scale-up of the rapid-injection, batch synthetic method, and compare it to other proposed manufacturing methods. A discussion of how to meet high volume QD production needs follows, consistent with current and future LCD volumes, and taking into account dominant implementation geometries.
